I'm using RX 570 4 GB. However, the GPU-Z program does not turn on the power consumption section in the sensors section. I wonder why?

If you go to settings -> sensors , is it not in there? Also try HWINFO64. I have a Sapphire Pulse RX 570 8GB and all the sensors for Power use are there.

Is using another name instead of 'power consumption' was previously used nvidia GPU 'power consumption' was the name.

In mine it's called "GPU only power draw". Or "Chip power" in HWINFO64. It's the same reading that the Performance monitor in the driver reads so I assume it's actually the board power. (The GPU also throttles when this number reaches the card's stated board power, which in my card is 135W at stock but I limit it to 95W).

In other words, the GPU-Z program does not have a section called 'power consumption' for AMD cards. Have I got it right? Instead, we can only look at 'GPU only power draw'.

For AMD only the power consumption by the GPU is measured, for Nvidia it's for the whole board, that's why there is this distinction.
